You could look at this one:

http://shop1.outpost.com/product/4596277...CH:MAIN_RSLT_PG

It's 300GB, and I think that will be enough. I have a 200GB in my Xbox, and I've had it for about a year, and have only used like 30GB of it. So it you want to go like 25 bucks cheaper, than you could go for this.

I'm a firm believer in the Western Digital drives but in my 1.6 i opted to go cheap and stuck a 70 dollar 300 gig Maxtor DiamondMax in it and couldn't be happier with it. I've got it partitioned for no G drive F has everything and it's got 70+ games loaded to it and a good bit of free space left (100+ gig) :)

the WD you linked to is a JB and they are excellent drives and I've got one in my PC as the D drive and wouldn't trade it for any other IDE drive (but i would for another SATA).

Topped that one, sorry.

Got two 320GB drives at Fry's for $59.99 each. There was a monster line when I arrived at 5AM, but I got in within 18 minutes and 5 minutes later, was out the door. I didn't bother looking or fighting over anything else. The drives are fully lockable and are working great in my 1.4 with an X3 and 1.6 with a Duox2.

$80 for a 300-320 is a good deal.
